Automate measurement and improve efficiency!

In the past, many items had to be set manually, meaning that measurements took a long time, but by adopting the , it is possible to easily automate measurements, and furthermore, the measurement details can be saved as evidence. In addition, automatic judgment is also possible by setting the threshold value in advance.

Advantages of adoption

  • Make accurate and reliable measurements according to the measurement procedure
  • Measurement content is also saved as evidence
  • Auto-judgment is also possible
  • Control of optional products can also be automated (e.g. temperature control of hot plate)

We made an actual comparison (IWATSU comparison)

A comparison was made between automatic measurement (Semiconductor Parameter Measurement Software CS-810) and conventional manual measurement using the same sample.
* For the time of manual measurement, it was assumed that an experienced operator performs the measurement.

A software option that you install on your PC to control curve tracers, scanners, hotplates, etc. via Ethernet.
The easy setup improves work efficiency by automating measurements with a curve tracer that previously only allowed manual measurements.



Semiconductor Parameter Measurement SoftwareCS-810

Automate measurement, recording, and judgment to improve efficiency of manual sorting and inspection.


Semiconductor Parameter Measurement SoftwareCS-810

Measure modules and multiple discrete devices while automatically switching between them.

Semiconductor Parameter Measurement SoftwareCS-810

Simultaneous control of the main unit, scanner, and hot plate, as well as fully automatic measurement of the temperature characteristics of the 6-in-1 module.

No programming knowledge required

By loading the settings of the curve tracer measured manually into the PC, the sequence is set, so no knowledge of programming is required, and anyone can easily set it.

Waveform comparison function

You can compare a large number of waveforms that have been saved after measurement, such as development variation and defect analysis. In addition, you can also judge the quality by comparing the waveforms.

Waveform comparison and judgment

You can judge the quality by comparing the waveform to the reference data.

Waveform display

CSV files and curve tracer recalled waveforms acquired in the past and currently acquired waveforms can be simultaneously displayed and compared on the same graph with a maximum of 10 waveforms.

Rescaling function

Saves the displayed waveform voltage axis to a CSV file at any interval. When the measurement results are displayed in a table, the voltage axes can be aligned.

Cursor functions

Displays the values of the displayed waveform in a list. In addition, the values are displayed by interpolation for points other than the sampling points.

Comment

You can view, edit, and move comments on each waveform.

Save graph image

You can save any combination of graph, file list, and cursor values to an image file.

Cursor functions

Displays the cursor on the X- and Y-axes. The values are displayed by interpolating between the measurement data points.

Graph area customization

You can customize the graph title, axis label, background color, axis range, etc.

Saving and reading settings

You can save the settings of the characteristic measurement and the customization settings of the graph area to a file and call them.

Device testing

Multiple device tests and records can be reliably performed in a short time.
Automatically executes multiple measurement items.
The operator can repeat the measurement under the same conditions by replacing the device, replacing the wiring, or entering the sample name if necessary (with the sample name automatic increment function) according to the information in the pop-up.
The judgment result is displayed for each measurement, and the image and waveform data are automatically saved.

After the measurement is completed, the LOG file can be exported to CSV or Excel format.
Waveform images and data are automatically saved during measurements.
The stress test logs are saved to a separate file.
You can also select the measurement result from the log display screen and rerun the measurement.

Module measurement

The scanner system is controlled simultaneously with the curve tracer.
You can also control the opening/shorting and HV/HC switching of each element gate, realizing fully automatic measurement of one module without removing the bus bar.

After setting one element, the setting of CS-810 can be easily created by copying the number of elements.

Stress testing

Various parameters can be incorporated into stress testing

  • Long-term reliability testing is possible.
  • Current and voltage are automatically monitored by the curve tracer side at all times, and current and voltage changes are logged.
  • Various parameters can be automatically measured during and before and after the stress test.
  • Set the lower and upper limits for both current and voltage, and stop the application when the limit is exceeded.
